with the URL to your five answers. I post the URLs below.

1. Is there anything from 100 years ago you'd like to see revived today 
(e.g. motion picture films without preceding advertisements, serialized
 novels in general interest mass market periodicals, more people wearing
  hats and gloves)?

2. What's the best book you've read so far this year?

3. What's your favourite musical discovery ((sub-)subgenre, artist) this
 year?

4. Share up to five of your favourite 'foreign language' terms and 
expressions, e.g. "sprezzatura" (Italian), "folie à deux" (French). 

5. You can have one person from any time in history call you for advice 
and follow what you tell them to do. Whom would you like to have call you?

 
Bonus question for those who've lived in a foreign country: what 
supermarket items common to your own country were you most puzzled to 
find in the 'ethnic/international' aisle?
